ELECTRICAL STIMULATION
WHAT IS IT?
Electrical stimulation is an advanced therapeutic technique that helps relieve pain, reduce muscle tension, and promote healing by using controlled electrical impulses. Dr. Santiago incorporates this treatment to assist patients suffering from musculoskeletal conditions, nerve-related discomfort, and post-injury recovery. This non-invasive therapy stimulates muscles and nerves, encouraging the body’s natural healing processes while enhancing overall mobility and function.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Electrical stimulation works by delivering mild electrical currents to targeted areas of the body, helping to improve blood circulation, reduce inflammation, and decrease pain signals sent to the brain. This method is particularly beneficial for individuals dealing with chronic pain, muscle spasms, or nerve-related issues such as sciatica. It also aids in muscle re-education for those recovering from injuries or surgery, strengthening weak or atrophied muscles over time.
BENEFITS
Patients receiving electrical stimulation often experience deep muscle relaxation and a noticeable reduction in discomfort after just a few sessions. It serves as an excellent complement to chiropractic adjustments and other therapeutic modalities, amplifying the effects of holistic care. By incorporating electrical stimulation into customized treatment plans, Dr. Santiago ensures patients receive targeted relief and long-term improvements in their musculoskeletal health.
